2024 Jungpana Muscatel Darjeeling Second Flush Black Tea DJ 110

This tea is known for its rare muscatel flavor, which is a signature characteristic of Darjeeling's best Second Flush teas. Harvested from the renowned Jungpana Estate, this tea offers a rich and unique tasting experience, highly prized in Japan and Germany.

Muscatel refers to a unique flavor profile found in some Darjeeling Second Flush teas, resembling the sweet, fruity taste of muscat grapes. This complex and nuanced flavor is highly prized and is a hallmark of premium Second Flush Darjeeling teas.

First Flush teas are harvested in early spring and are known for their light, floral, and delicate flavors. Second Flush teas, harvested in late spring to early summer, are richer, more full-bodied, and often have distinctive muscatel notes. The leaves of Second Flush teas are darker, and the brew is usually more robust compared to First Flush teas.

Muscatel teas typically have a sweet, fruity flavor with hints of muscat grapes, raisins, and sometimes a floral undertone. They may also have a subtle spiciness or nuttiness, contributing to their complex and rich taste profile.
